Combining the technical know-how of German Applied Science Universities with its own experience, ZUST explores ways of cultivating international specialists with applied skills.

ZUST is located in Hangzhou, the capital of Zhejiang Province, which is one of the most prosperous provinces in China with strong economic growth, vitality and potential. The University is at the foot of Xiaohe Mountain, with a tranquil lake inside and rolling hills surrounding the campus, not far from the most famous scenic spot in China---West Lake.

ZUST has been a nominated pilot institution of Chinese-German cooperation in the area of application-orientated talent cultivation by the Chinese Government. The development and construction of ZUST are closely associated with its international cooperation. Since the establishment of ZUST, the University has cooperated with German applied science universities, and now it becomes an important platform of education and technology cooperation between Zhejiang Province and Germany. Up today, ZUST has successfully established formal links with universities in Germany, U.K., Australia, France, etc. Many honored guests and professors visited ZUST and worked on campus, including the former German President Roman Herzog. Every year several hundred students are chosen to study in Germany, Australia, UK, etc. Additionally, an increasing number of international students are studying here.
